A fishy tail part 2

The swabbing is complete. Steve Ray has concluded , it was poison. The question is who.
Was is Tricia, who welcomed the fish so well but secretly was jealous . Or was it Tina who forgot that fish don't like Brown sauce. Or was it the hotel cats !!

Craig

Something Fishy

The fish are dead. Long live the fish.
Inspector Steve Ray is on the homicide case. Foul play is suspected and the CSI has uncovered a web of underwater crime.
We are awaiting forensics and are secretlty swabbing all suspects

The Fish Have Arrived

Yesterday was a great day for The Dower House hotel. We now have two hotel goldfish . The pensioners who arrived for our regular pensioners lunch on a Wednesday were smitten. They have been named Bob and Craig, the rather fat one is Bob!
Tricia extended her usual hospitality to them when they arrived , fed and watered them , unfortunately the same cannot be said for Tina . The fish were upset with Tina and started to show signs of fatigue when Tina came on duty. Tina was adament she wanted her apples back on reception.
Craig intervened and got Tina a large bacon sandwich with plentiful supplies of Brown and Red sauce (from a bottle) .
Craig and Bob regained there composure and are starting to swim again .

Stay tuned for more fish tales from The Dower House

puffing billies

Now the smoking ban is imminent many staff are left with the real conundrum of whether to stubb the butt or become a smoking wet leper.
What will happen to the traditional industry smoking break? Even non smokers faked smoking for this benefit- "Any smoke will do."
What about the serious puffers and the addicts?
Maybe the Gecko smokes. Who will police him? One of the smoked fish family?
I don't know but maybe we will see a return of the sneaky fag behind the back/ smoked holed hands/ overwhelming mint whiff and of course the " you stink of smoke "quip and the "Do I? It was a really smoky pub" response"!!!!

The Clingons and the 'Captain' will be aiming to build the Angel's own Crystal Maze with a variety of shrubs and trees.
